Today’s meal (from A Pinch of Yum) is the greenest meal I’ve ever had. It’s almost monochromatic
beauty (did I mention green is my favorite color?) is only topped by its
delicious taste. Can you believe it’s good for you to boot? Actually, it’s made
of stuff that’s naturally green so you probably assumed it was healthy. If you
truly want to make it a detox salad, you can remove the feta and top it with
lemon and olive oil. I made one modification (eliminating the jalapeño
pepper) based on my personal taste preferences. The original recipe is here.
